James Augustus REYNOLDS new south wales

[neeky]

Hey all, (long post ahead)
My great grandfather James Augustus Reynolds was born in 1887 (in Cowra NSW?) died in 1970 glen Innes nsw. He had 7 children all alive except for my grandfather Maxwell Bryant Reynolds who was born in Mitchell qld 1946- passed away 1983 glen Innes in a car accident.

My great grandmother (James' wife) was named Mary Ellen Rixon or Hardy and passed away as Edna May McMahon (buried in Glen Innes), she changed her name alot so don't know much about her.

I have a transcript of James' death but his parents are unknown and I also have a transcript of his birth but it's the wrong person and wrong parents :

James Angus Reynolds. 1886-1888 Dubbo nsw.
Mother : Margaret Angus
Father: John Augustus Reynolds.

James lived in Uralla NSW in 1913 with a Louisa Reynolds and James Reynolds. From 1934-1937 he lived around the Sydney area by himself.

Some of his children were born in qld, I think he went by a fake name though "Sydney James Reynolds".

If anyone could shed some light I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

Two curious marriages in NSW associated with the name BRYANT.  Is there any connection to your family?

James J REYNOLDS to Ellen E BRYANT in 1915

Was this their son?
James Augustus Breant REYNOLDS to Thelma Agnes SAUNDERS in 1943

Mary (edna) was born in 1918 or 1919 from what I was told she was born Mary Rixon and had 2 brothers.

On a transcript it says James and Mary got married in 1923 but that would have made Mary 4 years old then. (so I think that's wrong)

On a transcript from where? I cannot see a marriage for them on NSWBDM.

Could you list all that is on the transcript, please?
